Hello, im having a problem with my sound card. I was using win ME and i could
install my sound card (creative sound blaster audigy live!) and still use the
sound card that came with my motherboard... I WAS ABLE TO USE BOTH SOUND
CARDS AT SAME TIME... I USE IT THAT WAY TO MAKE MUSIC MIXES.

Now i have win xp and i can not use both cards.. the one that came with my
MSI motherboard and the creative sound blaster audigy live! one. if the SB
card is installed... win xp does not recognize the motherboard sound... but..
if i disconect the SB card off the PCI slot... then win xp recognice the
motherboard sound.

What can i do to make both work at the same time as i was able to do with
win ME?

thanks for all the help you can give me!

Unfortunately you don't have this option with WinXP. Who knows why
they did it this way but I've heard of other people having the same
problem. As far as I know, they can only use one sound system at a
time.
